On the 8th at Tokyo Dome in Japan, the Group C first-round pool game of the 2026 World Baseball Classic (WBC) between Korea and Taiwan was held.
Korea suffered a close 8-6 loss to Japan on the 7th. Having previously beaten the Czech Republic 11-4, Korea moved to 1-1 and must go all in on the remaining games against Taiwan and Australia.
In the top of the second with none out, Korea's Ryu Hyun-jin is looking disappointed after allowing a go-ahead solo shot to left-center to Taiwan's Chang Yu-cheng. Mar. 8, 2026
